  1. As I read it, for people initially receiving the Pfizer shots, the booster is not approved unless you fall into one of the covered categories (old, other health issues or work in a high risk environment).
  2. I’m probably unique in this regard, but I hate a long drive after a round of golf. I’m not sure how long your drives will be between locations but that sounds like a lot of driving. I do understand the desire to play as many of the famous and great course on one trip as you can.
  3. It’s been a few months since I’ve eaten at Dozier’s (it was very good) but I drove by there the other day and the outside picnic area with covered tables is nice and it was fairly crowded when I went by. Fulshear/Cinco Ranch area seems to be growing. He’s in a good spot.
  4. Any recommendation for a new docking station? I've had an old Dell tower that I intend to replace with a new Windows (probably Dell) laptop. My wife will have a new MacBook Pro with at least two Thunderbolt 3 ports so it must work with both Windows and Apple. I don't want to have to plug in the power adapters separately each time I dock the laptops so the docking station should have it's own power. Like my station at work, I want to only plug in the USB-C/Thunderbolt to the laptops and be connected and get power to the laptop through the USB-C connection. Any recommendations?
  5. Based on the attendance at football games in the SW US (Texas included) and the Deep South we should all be dead by now. LOL.
  6. The Woo was disgusting in the early 80’s, and I’m sure before, and yet billionaire’s sons lived there. It’s just what freshman men going through rush did back then. Some had condos at Orange Tree or other places in West Campus but that was usually for their sophomore through senior years.
  7. And another Lennon song, Norwegian Wood.
  8. It’s hyperbole. See also Hendrix’s Hey Joe and Young’s Down By The River. I’m sure there are many more.
  9. Papi is awesome. His post-game commentary was perfect.
  10. I recently found a new Titleist Tour Speed ball—never heard of it before, and played it for a round. Nice ball. Seems to go a little farther than the ProV1s. I could not tell any difference in feel in the short game.
  11. Probably already stated but it was a shit hole in the early 80’s.
  12. SETex numbers continue to improve. The last four days of new hospital admits has been 128, 104, 105, and 114. Confirmed+suspected Covid patients make up 10% of general bed usage and 22.7% of ICU beds. In the 27 county region there are about 8,500 general beds available (not counting the additional surge capacity) and about 100 ICU beds available (not counting the surge capacity). Note that ICU beds are almost always near full capacity.
  13. People that get off an escalator and just stop without giving those behind them anywhere to go. They get pushed away and act like I’ve assaulted them.
  14. I had not heard that the booster can be a different shot than the initial shot(s).
  15. Y’all need to read today’s The Morning op-ed in the NYTimes. https://nl.nytimes.com/f/a/pT2bo6XAPjGWyDihe4AYNg~~/AAAAAQA~/RgRjQqBwP0S_aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cubnl0aW1lcy5jb20vYnkvZGF2aWQtbGVvbmhhcmR0P2NhbXBhaWduX2lkPTkmZW1jPWVkaXRfbm5fMjAyMTEwMDgmaW5zdGFuY2VfaWQ9NDIzMjcmbmw9dGhlLW1vcm5pbmcmcmVnaV9pZD0xMTM5MTk4OTEmc2VnbWVudF9pZD03MDk4NSZ0ZT0xJnVzZXJfaWQ9YWI3NjAzOTc4ZDBjYTRjMTJhZDI0MWZmNjM4NDYxZjFXA255dEIKYV9wG2BhP70smFIUZGF2aWR6ZHVua0BnbWFpbC5jb21YBAAAAAA~
  16. So it’s not called Indian Princesses anymore? I guess I shouldn’t be surprised. We had great Indian Princess groups with both of my daughters. Fun times.
  17. Your question was rhetorical, but absolutely. It should be an axiom. Someone beating you with bare hands/kicking etc. can inflict severe bodily harm and death. You shouldn’t have to wait until you are near death or nearly unconscious before you can use deadly force in self defense. If that’s not the law it ought to be.
  18. Was about to post this. And, according to the most recent stats, percentage wise, the church is growing faster than the world population.
  19. Somewhat similarly, the Pope and the Roman bureaucracy do not control the operations of the various diocese throughout the world. They dictate canon law and matters of religious doctrine, but the operations of each diocese is governed by the bishop of that diocese.
  20. Same here. And I could have waited even longer. There was only one pecan tree about 60 feet away from my pool so it stayed very clean most of the year.
  21. I took the Pfizer shots (six months ago). I had my annual physical today and asked my doc about whether I should get a booster. I'm 59, in good health, not fat, and with no other risk factors. He said to wait on a booster.
